abstract = "The phenomenon of human interest towards other living organism and nature becomes the basic principles of more natural design-popularly known as biophilic design. One of the property types claimed as biophilic design by the developer is condovilla. Condovilla is a low-rise residential that combines the luxury of a condo and the beauty of the environment of a villa. This study aimed at: (1) evaluating whether condovilla falls into the category biophilic design; and (2) seeking on how much is personal tendency to be close to nature (biophilia) influences the buying decisions for a condovilla. Using mixed method with sequential explanatory strategy, the research found that: (1) the level of biophilia does influence the purchasing decision; (2) condovilla is one of the residential properties applying the biophilic design patterns; and (3) biophilia is not the key factor which affects the purchasing decision as there are other contributing factors such as price, location, and the physical building.",
